b'You know among the things I hate are getting my hair wet and being cold. We\'ll I had to overcome my phobias for a very good cause when I volunteered to jump into an icy pool of water in the dead of winter. But I did it gladly because it was Special Olympics PA\'s annual Polar Plunge. Money raised got to provide year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community. Now that\'s a worthy cause. I speak to John Blitzer from Special Olympics PA about the event that takes place February 10-11.

First - First - Act 158 provides alternatives to Pennsylvania\'s statewide requirement of attaining proficiency on the three end-of-course Keystone Exams (Algebra I, Literature, and Biology) for a student to achieve statewide high school graduation requirements. The act created alternative pathways to meeting statewide graduation requirements for students who are Career and Technical Education (CTE) concentrators and will affect graduating seniors in the class of 2023. I speak to Philadelphia School Superintendent Dr. Tony Watlington Sr. about what seniors need to know, what steps they need to take to insure they graduate on time and how parents and guardians can help.
